About this listen

Perfectionism is a character or personality trait that causes life to feel like a never-ending report card. A perfectionist feels as if they are being forever graded on their accomplishments, appearance, organization, and just about everything else.

This audiobook explores the ways in which perfection can have positive and motivational impacts, like providing the drive to overcome adversity or achieve certain goals. However, it can often become difficult to manage and lead to unhealthy outcomes that can translate quickly into anxiety, relationship challenges, daily struggles, and overall unhappiness.

You’ll learn how to identify perfectionistic tendencies and their triggers as well as how to build self-acceptance and self-esteem. Learning to cope with and manage perfectionism can lead to better relationships with family, coworkers, and most importantly, with yourself.

Case studies, professional advice, practical tips, chapter recaps, and several easy-to-follow mini-lessons are included in order to make this an audiobook that listeners will use as a reference tool for many years to come.

As a perfectionist, I quickly noticed my daughter's tendencies to follow in my footsteps. Perfectionism can be both a positive and negative attribute. However, I love how this book addresses perfectionism, the in's and out's of it, how to handle it positively and most importantly gain a greater understanding about it. Would certainly recommend this!

Great for my daughter & I!

I have always strived to be the best at anything I do.. I’m not sure I would call myself a perfectionist, but I do struggle with some of the traits a perfectionist has. This book is very insightful, teaches the positive and negative impacts being a perfectionist can have. I feel like I have learnt some valuable information about myself which I was not aware of before. Will be listening to it again and continue to work on myself. I recommend this book
